In Zhu Xian, people start to rise from plundering entries

After a long while, Su Han still had no clue.

"In that case..."

Su Han suddenly stood up, his eyes instantly becoming sharp.

"We can't stay here any longer."

He wasn't sure if the strange aura was the source of the hallucinations, but the fact that both hallucinations occurred in the Dripping Blood Cave was enough to suggest that there were unknown risks hidden there.

Moreover, Biyao was still by his side; he couldn't gamble her safety on whether she would be safe next time.

When Biyao saw Su Han suddenly stand up, her worry deepened. She stood up as well, quickly walked to Su Han's side, and gently tugged at his sleeve: "Su Han, what's wrong? Is there a problem in the cave?"

She could feel that Su Han's hands were colder than before, and the surrounding air seemed to tighten, which made her subconsciously clench Su Han's sleeve, afraid that something unexpected might happen.

Su Han looked down at Bi Yao, quickly concealing the wariness in his eyes and trying to make his tone sound calm: "It's not safe to stay here any longer, let's leave."

He didn't dare mention the hallucinations, nor did he mention the strange aura—Biyao was very perceptive, and if she knew that he had fallen into strange hallucinations twice, she would definitely be so worried that she couldn't sleep.

The most important thing right now is to get her out of the Blood-Dripping Cave. Once we're in a safe place, we can slowly investigate the source of that aura.

Although Biyao had doubts, she always trusted Su Han. Seeing his serious expression, she did not ask any further questions. She simply nodded and reached out to pick up the coat that was placed on the stone platform. It was the coat that Su Han had put on her earlier, and she had folded it neatly and placed it aside when she woke up.

She handed the coat to Su Han and whispered, "Let's go now. You haven't put on your coat yet. It's windy outside the cave, don't get cold."

Su Han took the coat but didn't put it on immediately. Instead, she turned around and draped it over Bi Yao's shoulders again, carefully adjusting the collar for her: "You're more afraid of the cold than I am. I'm healthy, so it's fine."

He remembered the last time they encountered cold fog in the mountains, Biyao sneezed after only a short while in the wind. This time, after leaving the Dripping Blood Cave, they would have to cross a shady forest, and he had to protect Biyao first.

Biyao pursed her lips, not refusing, but simply reached out and took Su Han's hand, gently squeezing his palm with her fingertips: "Then let's walk slowly, and if you feel cold, just tell me."

She knew that Su Han always put his own needs last, so she made a point of reminding him, afraid that he would stubbornly refuse to say anything.

Su Han held Bi Yao's hand and carefully walked towards the exit of the Dripping Blood Cave.

He walked very lightly, sensing the movement around him with every step—the strange aura from before, though faint, was like an invisible thread following him, making him dare not relax for a moment.

The water droplets on the cave wall were still dripping, but now they sounded like a countdown, urging him to take Biyao away quickly.

As they approached the cave entrance, Su Han stopped and peered out.

The mountain forest outside the cave was bathed in sunlight, morning dew still clung to the branches, and a few clear birdsongs drifted from afar, seemingly no different from usual. But he didn't let his guard down; instead, he took a protective jade pendant from his storage bag and placed it in Biyao's hand.

"Wear this. If anything goes wrong, just crush it and I'll come right away."

This jade pendant was something he had crafted before. It contained a simple communication array, so that he could sense Biyao's presence no matter where she was, as long as she crushed it.

Biyao took the jade pendant, obediently tied it around her waist, and smiled at Su Han.

"I know, don't worry, I won't wander off."

Her smile was still sweet, but with a touch more seriousness—she knew that Su Han had given her the protective jade pendant because he was worried about her safety, so she would definitely keep it safe and not cause him any trouble.

Seeing the seriousness in her eyes, Su Han's unease lessened somewhat.

He took Biyao's hand and walked out of the Dripping Blood Cave step by step.

As soon as he stepped outside, he clearly felt the strange aura behind him suddenly disappear, as if it had been blocked by the cave wall, and he could no longer sense it.

This further convinced him that the problem must lie within the Dripping Blood Cave itself, perhaps something was hidden in the cave walls, or perhaps some kind of energy within the cave was at work.

"Let's go to the bamboo grove ahead first. It offers a wide view and makes it easier to observe the surroundings."

Su Han pointed to a dense bamboo forest not far away and said to Bi Yao.

He remembered that there was a huge rock next to the bamboo grove, which could shelter him from the wind and rain and provide a good view of the surrounding area, making it a good place to stay temporarily.

Biyao looked in the direction he pointed, nodded, and followed closely in his footsteps: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

She could sense that Su Han's pace was faster than before, and knew that he wanted to leave the vicinity of the Dripping Blood Cave as soon as possible, so she quickened her pace as well, trying not to slow him down.

Walking along the mountain path, Su Han's eyes kept scanning his surroundings, his right hand quietly resting on the sword at his waist—a steel sword he had personally forged after transmigrating. Although it wasn't of high grade, it was enough to deal with ordinary dangers.

He dared not relax for a moment. The two hallucinations he had just experienced had already warned him that if there was something watching him from behind the scenes, it would definitely take action after he left the Dripping Blood Cave.

Seeing that he was still wary of his surroundings, Biyao said softly, "Su Han, don't be too nervous. We've already left the Dripping Blood Cave, so the danger might be over."

She knew Su Han was worried about her, but looking at his tense profile, she felt sorry for him and wanted to persuade him to relax a little.

Su Han turned her head and smiled at Bi Yao, but her eyes remained fixed on the surrounding plants and trees: "I'm fine, just being more careful can't hurt." (End of Chapter)
